Seriously, I consider a birthday more like a new years holiday and wanted to express my appreciation to quite a few individuals, including but not limited to the following people .... this is going to read like a who's who, but these are the people I most associate with ..

I am sure I am missing some names, but you know who you are... feel free to send all hate PMs directly to me. May the next 365 days bring you more points from OTHER people than you took from me this year.
